I wonder if there is a comparison out there between the RP supercat and the RB dual res midpipe. i was thinkin about getting the supercat..... but now im having second thoughts... i do heart RB. Anyone know?

 

Ughh, its threads like these that make me question waiting for the bhr pipe and just picking up one of these now...

 

eta on the bhr pipe??

 

Buy the dual res pipe and Davesport cat, take to a muffler shop, have them cut out the front res and install the cat there instead, be quiet, high flow, and emissions legal ...

 

DR RAcing Beat mid pipe is awesome.....along with the RB header and exhuast system...realli sounds nice...fitment is perfect...quality part made i must say....no cel light as of yet....great product and thumbs up!!!

I was going to go with the BHR midpipe because i like to support the really hands on vendors but i was just not patient enough. Im thinking about buying another catback just because at the rate im going with catbacks i might as well try them all paired up with this midpipe .

 

That corksport single res is reasonably priced. Holy crap did you see the price of the Auto EXE intake?

 

It's cause its mad jdm tyte yo.


I love my RB pipe and I really like RB in general. My goal is to get a custom center exit catback made with their rotor mufflers.

 

I'm reporting this thread to the Green Police and Obama at the white house.

 

noob question ... don't wanna jack thread....

OP, you said that you have not gotten a CEL, so I assume that your EMS is stock

I read somewhere that just putting on a midpipe (and cat-back) leans out full throttle to dangerous places ... Am I wrong?

or is this safe to do with stock engine management?

 

i have a stock EMS and my engine actually blew up about a week after installing this midpipe but im 99.9% sure that it is just a coincidence because if midpipes caused this then there would be alot more blown 8's. The tuning im guessing you are talking about is the tuning that is done after you install a midpipe to lean out some of the fuel for more power.

damn ... sorry to hear that ... I guess I'll wait till I have MM cobb before going midpipe just to be on the safe side

 

You can install a midpipe without a tune and be perfectly fine. My engine failure was due to a coil. Just by installing a midpipe on the stock ecu tune your not going to cause any harm. However if you want to get the most out of the midpipe then a tune will do that for you.

 

ok, question for those with the RB dual resonated. Do you get much in the way of noise from the header connection area? I have the Mazsport unit, and get a lot of exhaust noise at the header connection, almost sounds like an exhaust leak, very flat, and kinda unflattering at idle and low RPM's...now, at WOT it wails, and sounds great, just wondering about the low RPM and idle sound from the RB unit, from under the car.

 

I've got the Mazsport dual res and I get some squeaking from the midpipe header joint... just the vibration of the header from the engine up against the gasket.

I would say try a new gasket if you're getting a leak.

 

I pulled the whole unit last night, and yep, header gasket, the top right side was gone...it was brand new when I put it in...so I must have f'd it up...oh well, its not going back on.
